VP Biden on Russia

The Wall Street Journal requires you to register to access material, so giving you a link will not do you much good, I wouldn't think.♠ I am skipping that move and just giving you the article title, reporter and the lede. Then a short comment.

WASHINGTON -- Vice President Joe Biden said in an interview that Russia's economy is "withering," and suggested the trend will force the country to make accommodations to the West on a wide range of national-security issues, including loosening its grip on former Soviet republics and shrinking its vast nuclear arsenal.

Joe's a train wreck, an embarrassment, and a truly terrifying choice for the "heartbeat away" job. Even Dan Quayle on his best worst day couldn't keep up with this guy for being politically tone deaf and clueless. (And, by virtue of that, a menace to all the rest of us).
